Here's hoping once again for them to use Smash Run assets for a new Adventure mode...

I believe this even less than the typical rumors. The only remote chance of this being true is if it's a Smash 4 Championship Edition with all DLC included

It could have some DLC (aside from maybe 3rd party characters) and also some extra content, since they wouldn't need to keep parity with the 3ds version anymore, and they aren't developing any more content for the Wii U and 3ds versions after Corin and Bayonetta.

 

[-Horizon-]

From the What we know-thread.

If i had to guess:

Smash Bros GotY Edition with all DLC
Port of Tales of Berseria (and/or Tales of Zestiria)
Tekken (maybe?)
Pokken

Doubtful, but would be a megaton for me:

Dark Souls 3

If they're gonna do Dark Souls 3 they might as well just wait till the whatever expansion that game gets comes out first to do a complete edition.

 

[Clov]

If there's a Smash 4 version at launch with all the DLC included, plus some extras (a few new stages, characters) I'll be in at launch for sure. Even if it's just Smash 4 Wii U plus a handful of formerly 3DS exclusive stages, I'll be in at day one! I like playing on Corneria that much.

 

[SalvaPot]

Yep this is a port.

All they need to do is have a bundle with Mario, Link, Cloud, Ryu, Pac-Man, Mega Man, Sonic, Bayonetta and Pikachu in the cover and it will sell like hotcakes. I know people who don't even know Ryu is in the game.

 

[BiggNife]

Does he have a track record?

Let smash 4 die, we need a new engine for proper inklings.

Yeah, he leaked that Nintendo was going to show their mobile game (Miitomo) at their investors meeting and that it would be completely different from what anyone expected.

 

[konjak]

Port with more characters probably. Sakurai probably not directing.

Port, yes. More characters? It's ridiculous already, I am entirely confident they're done with new characters.

 

[Hero Prinny]

Smash at launch=me buying at launch. Im dead serious. If its a port of 4 it has to have new characters for me to still buy it day one, otherwise ill wait

 

[CryptiK]

If its Smash its either a port or the NX isn't releasing anytime soon

I'm expecting those titles too, Smash would probably just be called Super Smash Bros. for NX or whatever the system ends up being named. We can't disregard the possibility of Namco developing a title from the ground up, they're obviously putting all their budget into a new Klonoa game.

 

[entremet]

I love Smash 4, but it's gonna suck buying the game again so soon.

A port makes sense since the game is so new.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Smash 4 Complete Edition.

Smash 4 is

- Popular
- Current
- Well supported
- Definitive

Complete edition makes total sense going forward

HYPE

 

[SatoAilDarko]

I would think it would have to be a bit more than a port, a Smash for NX.

Including stuff like the 3DS stages. Perhaps an adventure mode. It would also feel like a wasted opportunity not to include the Inklings and prepare new DLC with how successful it's been so far.

I had expected Fall 2017 so Nintendo could have something next year and give Smash Wii U three years of life.

 

[Kouriozan]

I'd be OK with a definitive Smash 4 version, even more if there is bonus contents.

 

[kuroneko0509]

Someone asked if it was a new Smash Bros. and he said, translated (my German is a bit rusty, I'm actually Swedish):

"Exactly. It is being developed for NX."

To follow up on my last tweet: I haven't heard if it's a completely new (numbered) Smash Bros or not. Otherwise, source situation is solid.

high chance it's a complete edition of smash 4... hopefully both version stages are in the game

 

[Lil'DigiOp]

Now I have to wait for NX reveal info before buying a Wii U.... smh

Tales and DS3 probably aren't likely. You have to consider that Bamco also makes a lot of licensed and family friendly games that could be on NX. They also developed Wii Sports Club so they could be doing more work for Nintendo.

 

[georly]

Knew it, no way smash was going to skip NX or launch at the end of the NX life. It'll be smash complete edition with characters not possible on the 3DS finally coming back (ICE CLIMBERS).

Can't wait. Will triple dip. Hopefully the DLC chars get customs, event stages, and new music tracks. I'd love break the targets and board the platforms to come back too, but i'm ok with just a remaster at launch. <3 <3

I think ~4 new characters would be enough to re-sell it to most people. Ice climbers, wolf, and 2 newcomers, would be my guess. Namco needs another rep, as does square.

 

[Arkam]

A Smash 4 port with all of the DLC included wouldn't be surprising.

And welcomed with open arms! Especially if there was nice chunk of new content.
I would be happy with MK8 doing the same.

 

[shadow2810]

several games? Baten Kaitos hype

 

[udivision]

Maybe even a Naruto Storm 4 Port?

 

[Vital Tundra]

No doubt in my mind Smash 4 is a launch title, but I know my hopes will be dashed once its revealed and Ice Climbers aren't a returning character and the 3DS content is forever lost.

 

[bloodforge]

Is Ridge Racer included in those several games

One can hope.

Pokken wouldn't surprise me as well actually. TPC wants to keep a strong community for it so having it on the new console would also keep the game going.

 

[Prevolition]

Smash 4

Spoiler

NX LET'S GOOOOO

 

[Graphics Horse]

I think those days have passed. Would be cool for a proper revival tho.

 

[DrROBschiz]

I almost expect this to happen with ALL big WiiU software

At least the recent ones

Zelda WiiU is gonna also be an NX game for sure

 

[TheJoRu]

Alright, he clarified he doesn't know if it's completely new or not:

[trutrutru]

I feel like it may be more than just a port. I get the feeling we'll get a surprise like "melee or turbo mode" or something else that aims to bridge the smash communities. Along with a fe extra characters and a proper execution of that 3ds exclusive mode, where players can run into each other and fight in the map while getting power ups.

Im mainly basing this off of namco job post that showed up either before or just after smash was released. Looking for staff for the next one. Leads me to believe it will be more than a simple port.

 

[BiggNife]

I think if Smash 4 NX gets any new feature it'll be exclusive single player modes, continuing the trend that the Wii U/3DS versions had. I would not expect any new characters. Maybe a few new stages?

 

[AdanVC]

Exactly


Expect a lot of WiiU ports

Mario Maker should be there, possibly Xenoblade X, etc...

Some of the older WiiU games might get a sequel or something

Splatoon as well. But if this ports become true,this could possibly means that NX will not be BC with Wii U. Wich is great in my humble opinion because Nintendo needs to distance of the Wii brand forever if they really want to succeed this time.

 

[120v]

my guess is a Smash spinoff... a 3D fighter or something

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

It better have Cloud.

If it's a port though, it doesn't suggest good things regarding NX's BC situation. :/

 

[twothunder]

A Smash 4 port with all of the DLC included wouldn't be surprising.

indeed. Seems likely.
Maybe they will add some stuff beyond the current DLC that could not be done on 3DS?
Ice Climbers would be an obvious one. Maybe inkling with an ink mechanic that could not be done on 3DS?

He just tweeted:

edit. beaten to it

 

[Hydrus]

MGS 5 coming to NX and snake going to be a smash 4 nx exclusive. Calling it now!

 

[Jonneh3003]

Smashhen

 

[Hiltz]

Dark Souls 3 port seems unlikely given that the game's director stated that the target audience for Dark Souls 2 wasn't on Nintendo's platforms. To me, it's doubtful NX will change that regardless of its install base growth.It's a shame too, since I'd like to try the series out.

 

[Forkball]

Everyone back on the Smash hype train.

 

[Penguin]

Yeah, I can see a Smash 4 with all the DLC and doing all the maps (since 3DS and Wii u exclusive stages never crossed streams) into one package.

 

[Diddy Kong]

SMASH HYPE NEVER FUCKING ENDS. EVER.

 

[Korgill]

If it's a Smash Complete Edition, I hope the put Ice Climbers in as a surprise secret character. NX should not be punished for 3DS's sins.

 

[Davey Cakes]

Not something worth getting hyped about. It seems obvious to port a lot of Wii U games to NX, especially the most popular ones with lots of DLC.

 

[Nirolak]

It better have Cloud.

If it's a port though, it doesn't suggest good things regarding NX's BC situation. :/

I wouldn't be shocked if they do a clean break with the old architecture.

A lot of the stuff they used earlier isn't exactly what you want to be using in 2016.

 

[Neoxon]

Probably Smash 4: Complete Edition.

Hopefully the GameCube Adapter still works.

 

[Shotgun Kiss]

It's weird for Nintendo to do as they haven't but yeah it wouldn't be surprising at all.

Precedent doesn't mean much here; Nintendo have never had a home console flop as hard as the Wii U. Re-releasing some of its games on the NX as GotY versions would be a good business decision, as it would give them a second chance on the market.

I wouldn't expect any new content though; that would piss off current owners of Smash Bros. on Wii U, especially those who have been paying for all the DLC.

 

[Drilbit777]

Smash 4 NX port with all the DLC included would be a no brainer to launch with. Hopefully this means that maybe Namco would be down with porting a few of their games on NX like Tales Of Besteria or Tekken 7 on it.

 

[StormBrute]

Yeah, I was kinda expecting they would have a Smash 4 NX Championship edition or something around launch. It's a popular entry in a popular series that they're most likely not going to be making a new game in for a while.

 

[Jawbreaker]

Yeah, I figured they'd put a complete edition of Smash on the NX (if this is indeed what that is, anyway). Kind of a no-brainer.

 

[ffdgh]

Everyone back on the Smash hype train.

The train never stopped

I'd also take mario kart 8 complete too if they add missing veterans and fix a few things.

 

[FunkyDealer]

I hope this is true, and I wouldn't mind a Smash 4 port on NX. Especially if it comes with the 3DS stages and all DLC.

 

[Neoxon]

I hope this is true, and I wouldn't mind a Smash 4 port on NX. Especially if it comes with the 3DS stages and all DLC.

We don't know how far along the Ice Climbers were on the Wii U before Sakurai pulled the plug. And even then, I'm not sure if they would change Smash 4 without Sakurai. Same for the 3DS stages.
